CUTTING AFFRAY
At the Dallas High School.

Between 8 and 4 o'clock, Mt recess,
yesterday, while the boys were out
paying at the Dallas High School,
quite a number of the larger boys
wanted to "bump' two of the smaller
ones. But the small boys protested,
and backed up against the fence to
keep from being bumped. One OF
them, Charley Bryant, took out his
knife and opened it, plainly intimat-
! ing thereby that he would hurt his
assailants. Willie Minyard was stand
ling next to him and some of the
larger boys pushed Willie against
Itbarlie, when they both fell on the
ground, and in the fall the knife en-
tered Willie's right side just about
the waist line. inficting bad wound
about three inches deep. The wound
ed boy tainted and was picked up and
carried home. The largest boy in the
GRO gd, whose name is unknown, and
who is most blamed for the boy being
cut, took hasty departure. The boy
cut and the one who had the knife are
between IA aud Is years of age. The
wound is serious, but not dangerous.

They Paid for Their Little Joke

A story comes from Weldon about .
woll-known engineer on the Atlantic
Coast line who is said to be little
superstitious. He feels sad II he fails
to look at the new moon over his right
shou' Ter, and always makes cross
mark in his path when he has to turn
back for something that he has forgot
ten. II Is said that he will travel u
mile out of his way to avoid grave
yard, and carries the left hind foot OF
rabbit in his pistol.pocket. Some OF
the conductors on the line attempted to
play joke on this engineer few days
ago. They hired coffin from Mr..
Emory, dealer at Weldon. and placed
II in the room Mt the hotel occupied by
the engineer on his arrival. II was
midnight when his train came in and
the tired engineer retired to his apart
ment. As he entered his room he
stumbled over the coffin and came near
falling, but striking a match he saw
the obstacle and OWNED the purpose of
the jokers. He at once returned to the
yard of the hotel. where he secured a
a billet of wood, and ascending to 5
room. deliberately smashed the coffin
into splnters. The next morning he
left Weldon, and his disappointed tor
mentors repaired to his room. When
they saw the wrecked coffin they heaved
sigh of disappointment and chagrin.
but gathered up the fragments and
sent them to Mr.. Emory. when the
latter returned bill for SIG which the
conductors had to pay Wilmington

The Pope's Income.

A foreign diplomatst accredited at
Rome gives the following account Of
the pope's revenue and of the way in
VIII ich it is spent. 1t is derived from
three sources. /. The interest OF an
enormous sum left by Pho Mono to the
pontitical treasury and invested in the
English public funds. This interest
amounts to about 5000. COG lire, or
about El25. 000 Leo XIII. is Il great
speculator. and subscribes to the Italian
loans in order to sell when the value
rises and invest the profit in the En-
glish consolidated fund. q The pro-
cecds of Peters pence. This batch OF
the revenue has suffered greatly in
recent years, but nevertheless, the av-
erage amounts to about 1000 600 lire,
or about fS3, 900. These two sums
which represent f20S.0 900 per annum,
constitute the ordinary income of his
holiness. 1t is distributed by the cham
berlaln among the cardinals residing
in Rome-about El,000 per annum for
each ardnal-among the prelates OF
the papal court, the secretaries, the
nunclos. the guards of the pontiff's
body, etc. 8. The eXtraord nary part
of the papal revenue is derived from
the receipts of the apostolic chancery.
The items include the sums received for
titles of nobility, papal decorations,
benedictions in the article of death,
privileges of the alter, private chapels,
dispensatons. ecclesiastical titles, and
many other things. This department
yields about 2, 500, 600 lire, or fl04. 600,
pcr annum. The whole annual income
of Leo KILL, therefore, reaches the
enormous sum of about f3, 600, 900. -
